Published in 1877, 'Peru in the Guano Age' by A. J. Duffield provides a historical account of Peru during the guano boom, a period marked by significant economic and social upheaval. The book contrasts the nation's prosperous 'Golden Age' of the Incas with the subsequent 'Guano Age,' characterized by corruption and decline in social order. Duffield reflects on the impacts of guano trade on governance, agriculture, and law, while suggesting that Peru can learn from its past as it navigates modern challenges. This work highlights the complex interplay between resource wealth and national identity.
